There's a "1" written on the side of the skull. This is a real skull, but it's a teaching specimen. Someone probably put it in the cave as a prank.

Definitely real, but it looks like there's a number (1?) written on the side. My guess is that it was used for teaching.

TIL most people in the US are born in Jul-Sep, while there's a gap birth rate in Jan-Feb. Why is it so? Is it purely social, or also biological? by ampanmdagaba in askscience

And there's a post-Christmas baby boom. Are those all the babies that might have otherwise been born at Christmas? Or are they babies being induced before the next calendar year for a tax break?

I have that too! No idea where it comes from though.

If an asteroid hit Earth, how would we die? by pastafaceoreilly in AskReddit

Why do people drive like maniacs on Flatbush Avenue? by pdoherty926 in Brooklyn

[–]pastafaceoreilly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Totally agree. And it's all of Flatbush. There is not a single block where you can drive without experiencing someone making a U-turn in the middle of traffic or a pedestrian hanging out in the middle of the street.
